    Are anyone planing on bring your family with you?


    Parks...
    I live about 7 miles to Disney, 4 miles to SeaWorld or Universal.

    Hotels / Food / Everything else under the sun.
    My house is about 3 miles to "I" drive / International Drive.

    I get some idea's where you can get a hotel room, there's everything you would like. I would need some ideas what you guy like, or like to spend but anything near a "Park" is close to me also.

    Haha, I just told my wife and she is THRILLED about it! She already wants to start planning which park she is going to bring our son to. You made me a hero DisneyJoe. Thanks for offering your home to us!


    I'd be happy to bring gear too, but it's a little early to tell what I'll have then :biggrin:...we'll just have to wait and see what I have, and see what you want?

    There is some great places right on International Dr. I have stayed in that area many times. Floridays is nice, Embassy suites is nice, there's more too, but I have to ask my wife cause I don't remember 'em all...

    Orlando is an excellent place to stay in Florida if you want to get around the entire state. It is only a couple hours away or less from so many attractions.

    Its going to be a great fest.

    My wonderful wife's ears perked up when she heard this news.

    Thanks for hosting DJ.

    Guys driving down or over are welcome to stop by and rest the night or what have you. I am just off 95 about four hours from DJ's.

    This is really tempting. Just today my 13 year old was saying..."Dad, when are you going to take me to......?

    Have to see how we can plan ahead for this. It won't be easy to have that period off this coming year!
